how should one go about turning the lights back from 24/0 to 12/12? i imagine that going from 24/0 to 12/12 immediately will have a negative effect on the plants health, the last thing i want happening to my precious plants. is there a schedule someone could recommend to me so that i dont shock the shit outta my plants? thanks for the help in advance
Hey
There is no problem to change the light cicle. If you use ferts its totally diffrent: you water a sprout with a solution of 1-1-1 and then the next day you want your plant to be as big as the world and you change it to 30-30-30, now you will kill the plant (root burn etc etc).
see ya have fun
if u like then go from 24/0 to 18/6 then down to 14/10down to 12/12. doesnt really matter tho how u do it, i personally start from 24/0week one, then 18/6 from week two till five, at five weeks flower em on 12/12(cuz i have very limited hight restrictions). thats just my choice like cannabecea sed u can do wotever with the lighting, as long as wen u r flowering u dont interupt the dark period bcuz this can sometimes cause the plants to revert back to a vegetative state.
cool, thanks for the tips. they are much appreciated.
Local indoor growers in my area (hydro & dirt) use a cycle of 24 hours on then change to 12 hours on 12 hours off. Then after 5 to 7 days change nutrients to a bloom / flower mix.
Good Growing!
